Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu!
This recipe is for Carrot Cake. I had a tonne of carrots lying in the fridge for a while, and so I decided to bake my Mum a Carrot Cake. The cake turned out really moist, because I used vegetable oil instead of butter. Usually, Carrot Cake is topped with a cream cheese icing but I didn't put any on this cake because I don't think it needed it. All this cake needs is a good cup of tea, and you're good to go!
